New On The Scene

  • Hi everyone: I am new to the forum and not sure where to go but I know I need some support and help. I am on Weight Watchers and was good until 11:00 p.m. Most people would go to bed at that hour but not me. I started bingeing!! I also have a slight case of cerebral palsy which has caused severe back problems that prevent me from walking for any length of time. My doctor wants me to get some weight off to see if my pain lessens. I know it will but I am constantly sabotaging my program. I need some form of exercise but am clueless as to what to do. I do swim some but it has been raining here alot in Florida. I need some friends and some advice. I'm almost desperate. I have lost 21 lbs. so far but should have lost 50 by now. I keep blowing it. Any advice? Thanks livingfree2003
  • Glad you joined us! This is a huge board, there's a lot of places to choose from.

    I belong to 3 or 4 myself.....just check around & see the one (or more) that suits you best! I'm in Chronic back injury & pain (changed later to Hey There)...., over 50's......., etc.

    I have Rheumatoid Arthritis (severe), so I understand where you're coming from. I've lost 20 lbs so far, without exercise. It's not easy....but we can do it!

    Lots of luck. Hope to see you around
